  • Ministeral Dialogue on the Great Green Wall
    MINISTERAL DIALOGUE ON THE GREAT GREEN WALL VP Kevin Kariuki I would like, first, to thank you for your kind invitation and the honor thus extended to the African Development Bank to participate in this Virtual Ministerial Conference on the Great Green Wall. Allow me to also extend my congratulations to the Pan-African Agency of the Great Green Wall (APGMV) and its eleven member countries on the laudable efforts with regard to the Great Green Wall Initiative. Let me also express my huge appreciation to UNCCD for spearheading this process. The GGW implementation status and way ahead to 2030 report has highlighted the huge progress being made on the Great Green Wall. Millions of hectares of land have been restored, thousands of jobs created, and livelihoods and dignity of millions of people have been enhanced in the Sahel through diversification of economic activities and revenue regeneration. We need now to scale up. With regard to the subject of today’s meeting, let me first note that The African Development Bank's vision for the Sahel aligns strongly with that of the Great Green Wall initiative. - Since 2015, The African Development Bank has been a part of the Great Green Wall and intends to reaffirm its commitment to continue to support this bold and transformative programme. The Bank's vision for the Sahel is that of green growth and prosperity based on clean, reliable and affordable energy systems, the restoration of degraded ecosystems and land, and agriculture that is resilient in the face of climate change. This approach fits perfectly with the Ten-Year Strategy of the African Development Bank Group, the High 5s, the Bank’s Climate Change and Green Growth Action Plans, and includes commitment to mobilize $25 billion for climate finance by 2025.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM Launched in March 2012, the African Peacebuilding Network (APN) supports independent African research on conflict-affected countries and neighboring regions of the continent, as well as the integration of high-quality African research-based knowledge into global policy communities. In order to advance African debates on peacebuilding and promote African perspectives, the APN offers competitive research grants and fellowships, and it funds other forms of targeted support, including strategy meetings, seminars, grantee workshops, commissioned studies, and the publication and dissemination of research findings. In doing so, the APN also promotes the visibility of African peacebuilding knowledge among global and regional centers of scholarly analysis and practical action and makes it accessible to key policymakers at the United Nations and other multilateral, regional, and national policymaking institutions. ABOUT THE SERIES “African solutions to African problems” is a favorite mantra of the African Union, but since the 2002 establishment of the African Peace and Security Architecture, the continent has continued to face political, material, and knowledge-related challenges to building sustainable peace.
